The seasons are quickly changing. To learn more about the changing seasons in the prairie region of the US, read our featured eBook for November, Prairie Storms. Cozy up with Prairie Storms and learn all about a year of ever-changing prairie weather. Learn how animals in these grasslands adapt and survive in such a harsh climate. Told in lyrical prose, this story is a celebration of the great American prairies. Use this interactive eBook with smartboards, projection in the classroom, or in a computer lab setting. Please encourage the families to access from home with siblings. Large screen display and the ability for children throughout the classroom to actually see the text and make the audio-to-word connection is changing storytime into reading time, and we think that can help improve literacy and encourage reading. (And as much we believe in eBooks in the classroom, we still love our hardcover and paperback books!!) Either way, use the following pre-made activities and quizzes to make your life easier and to help children learn more about the season:For Creative Minds: (6 pg educational section found in the back of the book) Grassland Habitat Facts, Grasslands around the World, Weather or Season?, Animals, Weather, and Seasonal Changes: True or False?Teaching Activities: (52 pg cross-curricular supplement) which includes: Edible Sorting and Classifying Activity, Classifying Animals, Animal Chart and Sorting Cards, The Grasses We Eat!, Bison Map Activity, and Coloring Pages. Classroom Teachers and School Librarians: check out state standards alignments, interactive quizzes, and more to make your life easier and time efficient.You will always find these supplemental materials for each of our 65 titles plus other helpful teacher tools, news, events, and more on our website: www.SylvanDellPublishing.com. We hope you enjoy our latest offerings!Best, Kelly McGinty
